Fig. 1 Longitudinal sensors lay-out Fig. 2 Diagram of the testing vehicle [cm] Comparative Studies between Moving Load Experiment and Numerical Simulation A numerical model is established by MIDAS/Civil with beam element, which is showed in Fig. 3.
The main character of the mode showed in Fig. 5 is that the upper structure of the tested bridge appears vertical first order bending vibration, which is analyzed by MIDAS/Civil, and the corresponding calculated frequency is 2.55Hz.

Durability Analysis on the Performance of Concrete Construction Based on Reinforcement Corrosion Hongwei Feng1, a, Yimeng Wu2,b 1,2 Department of Civil Engineering and Architecture, Xinxiang University, Xinxiang, Henan, China a*hongwei0022@163.com, bwyimlove@hotmail.com Keywords: concrete construction, reinforcement corrosion, durability Abstract.
Recent years, it has made some achievements in the durability of concrete structure in our country; for example, in 2004, “Concrete structure durability design and construction guide” was published by the organization of Chinese Academy of engineering of civil engineering and architecture, and it was revised in 2005.
The initial corrosion of steel as structural durability design basis provides a reference for practical engineering application.
The corresponding function can be expressed as: g 3( ,t)=R(,t)-S(,t) Equation (4) References [1] China Engineering Institute of civil engineering and Architecture Department, The design of concrete structure durability and construction guide[R], Beijing, China Architecture & Building Press (2004)
